A group funded by the Royal College of art has created an ice cream dispenser named Dr. Whippy. The good doctor will dispense a prescription for ice cream if you sound sufficiently miserable.

Ice cream always makes me feel better. But if I'm having a good day, so Dr. Whippy only gives me a small ice cream, which makes me feel sad, will Dr. Whippy give me more?
